Deadspin is nominally a sports blogsite. There are no major sports in action right now unless you want to count baseball, which is a bad and weak sport. So we at Deadspin started talking about comic books, because at least 100 grim, gritty trailers for superhero movies came out over the weekend. Eventually, we… »7/14/15 3:03pm 7/14/15 3:03pm

NASCAR Camping World Truck Series driver Jennifer Jo Cobb will be the first driver to be penalized under the new rule against leaving a wrecked car before safety personnel arrive and approaching the racing surface.

During last night’s playoff game against the Chicago Bulls, the Cleveland Cavaliers showed the video below, which was removed from the team’s Vimeo page this morning, on the in-arena jumbotron. The premise of the skit, which is supposed to be a Dirty Dancing spoof, is that a Cavs fan physically harms his Bulls fan… »5/07/15 10:13am 5/07/15 10:13am

If you’re covering a murder trial for a local news station, the last thing you should do is try to follow one of the jurors home. If you just can’t help yourself, though, you should definitely do so in a vehicle that is not a gigantic, conspicuous news van that has your station’s name painted all over it. »4/09/15 12:29pm 4/09/15 12:29pm

Last week, I took a moment to explain why Minecraft, the world's biggest video game, sucks hard balls. And in my "research" for that post (five minutes), I found a number of Minecraft recreations of 9/11 over on YouTube. All of these tributes are misguided at best and tasteless at worst …»3/11/15 12:26pm 3/11/15 12:26pm

Mississippi State football players Dak Prescott, Torrey Dale, and Damian Williams got jumped at a Waka Flocka concert in Panama City, Fla., yesterday, and pictures and videos of the incident were posted all over social media.

Some guy who is the host of an internet show of some sort thought it would be a good idea to goad UFC champion Ronda Rousey into engaging in some friendly judo with him. The dude's ribcage probably wishes he'd just kept his mouth shut.»3/05/15 1:52pm 3/05/15 1:52pm

The Washington Wizards created a pop-up website to celebrate Black History Month. The site is full of pictures of various members of the Wizards organization spliced next to a picture of a historical black figure that inspires them, and a quote from each person featured. It's mostly a harmless idea, until Ted Leonsis… »3/02/15 1:51pm 3/02/15 1:51pm

Listen, I'm as confused as you are, but this is appears to be a promo for a movie about the life of Marshawn Lynch, starring Marshawn Lynch. It looks like an extremely bad movie! »2/24/15 3:59pm 2/24/15 3:59pm

I'm on SweetWater's mailing list. They send me some good shit sometimes. I haven't reviewed any of it yet, just because, eh, lotta beers out there. But they make some good stuff. Today, they sent this bullshit.»1/09/15 1:13pm 1/09/15 1:13pm

The NYPD is asking for help identifying a man who shot the hell out of a door in a Bed-Stuy apartment building last month. As you can see in the security footage above, the whole door-shooting thing didn't work out so well for this guy. »12/11/14 2:13pm 12/11/14 2:13pm

We were living in Chicago when I was six, and I chose to be a ghost for Halloween. I made the costume myself, because cutting two holes in a sheet seems like an easy task. Of course, I had to cut a third eyehole, because my first two were off-alignment. I also failed to consider the fact that a ghost costume has…»10/31/14 11:37am 10/31/14 11:37am

I wasn't allowed to watch The Simpsons growing up. It wasn't until I was 10 or so that my parents let my sister and I watch a single episode, and then only because they'd heard it had some kind of moral: "Bart learns a lesson," something along those lines. I remember the exact episode: "Radio Bart," season 3,…»8/26/14 10:38am 8/26/14 10:38am
